Default Design Acolytes of Anguish [aOa] a guild cape (within the next 30 hours!) 100k prize!

current prize for winning cape: 45k

Hey ladies and gentlemen!

So, it has come to my attention that myself and my guildmates are abysmal at designing guild capes. A few days ago I opened up a guild-cape contest to my mates on our forums (teamlove.us - you won't be able to see the thread, though), and we've only gotten a smatter of submissions. Disheartened by our creativity ( Ok, I seriously love my guildies, but we have issues), I bring my plea for a guild cape to Guru! The way it's working on our private forums is that everyone who choses to will submit a cape, and then I'll create ANOTHER thread in which they can vote for any submitted cape. Again, you won't be able to see the thread that we'll vote on, but the results will be posted here, and I'll PM the winner to make sure it's still okay that we can use the design, and so they can pick up their prize.

Thhhhaaaaaaat brings me to you guys! Here are the parameters set out for my guildies, and for you guys:

- Please only submit one or two cape designs & submit them in the same post
- Don’t be dickin’ around when you submit the cape. Pick something that has timelessness, and that you would want to see as your cape a month or two down the road.
- Feel free to choose any emblem and colour design

Unfortunately, there is only a meagre prize of 15k (unless my guildies wish to contribute more, I'm just kinda springing this thread on them), BUT you will have the pleasure of knowing that your handcrafted unique cape will be worn by some of GW's finest players!!!! *ahem...*

So... on with it! It's last moment, I know, but you have until Friday, April 18 @ 11:59 EST to submit your cape on this thread, which is just over 30 hours!

Any questions, PM me in game or here: IGN Illfated Fat

Hello

i hope you like it

i figured the "acolyte" as the center , with a anguished look,

a contrasting deep blue in the back brings it out, and there is a small icon for decrotive purporses

I hope you all don't mind me submitting four. I don't know what would suit your guild best, so I tried coming up with various styles that might appeal to different people. If it's too much of a hassle, the first and third are my preferred entries.

Here's my stab at it:

Closest thing to an acolyte I could find. Curse you, limited symbol selection!

Contest is cloooooosed. Please don't post anymoar capes. I'm going to post a poll in our teamlove forums. Within the next 7-10 days (haven't decided on voting period for members yet), I'll post the results here. If a cape from guru one, the designer will win 100k
